It’s our closest call yet, but we manage to get a site – finally – in Kununurra, at the last of the six caravan parks we call. Unpowered, sure - but we’re just happy to have a place to stay. We swim, shower, launder, stock up on fresh produce at the farmers market, and after checking out the few local sites, are on our way.

The creek at the Bungle Bungle caravan park where we wile away a morning before hitting the road for Kununurra. Had we realised how idyllic it was, we'd have arranged to stay another day. |

The original road crossing to Wyndham from Kununurra. Our next stop is Wyndham but we choose to take the highway... |

At the Diversion Dam in Kununurra, over which the main highway passes, and which provides water to the farming area by gravity fed irrigation channels. We are impressed to learn that as much water as fills Sydney harbour is released through the dam each day. But after a long hot day in the car, none of us are impressed enough to jump out for a photo so we take it from the passenger seat. |
